Besides what Douglas said: Unless Shibboleth is your only LDAP client
you'll run into the same problem with every other LDAP client, and
most (all?) I've seen can only make use of a single DN to start the
search from.
So if searching a common ancestor DN (e.g. the DSA's basedn) isn't an
option you'll likely need some kind of meta-directory, that will
present clients with a sane view of your internal directory structure.
